 Mutant Neobusiness Communication Guide by wallks
--------
Mutant pets have their own language and sometimes can be hard for other Neopians to understand what they are trying to say. A simple Mrruh nrrum tchk-tchk-tchk may look like a meaningless sound, when, in fact, your mutant colleague is trying to let you know the time of a meeting. In the Neobusiness world, communication is key, and the mutant community is growing just as their place in the Neoenterprises. From board meetings in Neopia Central to offices deep within Darigan Citadel, it is increasingly common you share the desk, the break room and that meeting you almost get late with a fellow mutant. I present you Mutant Neobusiness Communication Guide, a quick reference to help Neopians (mutants or not) overcome language barriers and build more inclusive workspaces and reduce grunts misunderstandings. Here is a list of the 50 most relevant phrases for the workspace: 1. Mrruh nrrum tchk-tchk-tchk that means The meeting is scheduled to 9 am NST 2. Mrruh nrrum mmm-rrah that means The meeting is cancelled; 3. Mrruh nrrum khrr mruh that means This meeting could be a Neomail; 4. Grram krah mur nhaa that means Who scheduled a meeting on Friday? ; 5. Grram krah mur nhaa grrakh that means Who scheduled a meeting on Friday 5 p.m. NST? ; 6. Gnh gnh that means I am hungry; 7. Rrrrruh rrruh nrrum krek-krek? Gnh gnh that means Is this meeting still going to take a long time? I am hungry! ; Neobusiness Tip: grunts during a presentation don’t aways is a red flag; your fellow mutant might simply have realised there are still 47 slides to go. 8. Gnah murr keh nhaa that means There is Colourful Negg Pizza for lunch; 9. Gnah murr gruumm vaa that means Lunch time is over; 10. Krah vur nah grrakh that means The file’s attached; 11.

Gluuh nah maa vurr grrakh that means Don’t talk to me before I can get my Clover Cream Coffee! ; Neobusiness tip: mutants aren’t fans of iced coffee; they like their coffee just like the Lost Desert: extremely hot! 32. Khrr nah murr gnah... that means As we discussed previously… ; 33. Khrr nah murr gnah krah... that means As previously informed… ; Neobusiness tip: If a mutant replies Grrakh after receiving a Neomail with number 32 or 33 phrases, it might be best to wait a few minutes before stopping by their desk. 34.

Grrakh krah vurr nhaa that means My shift is over. New problems are someone else's problems! ; Always remember learning a new language is never easy; you probably confuse Mrreh with Mru during the first few weeks, and it is all right! Watch, listen and don’t always assume they are angry; despite the popular belief, mutants are extremely intelligent, affectionate and great companions
